On my way to work this morning I picked up an envelope from the doorstep. I opened it on the bus. It contained the wristband and some leaflets. I put it in my bag,
When I got on the train I opened my bag and looked at the envelope and the wristband wasn't there.
I wish I could claim that they never sent it but I can't. I saw it. It was silvery and said "Rising Sun" on it which struck me as odd because the bus was passing the Rising Sun pub at the time.
Its probably on the floor of a 321 bus approaching Sidcup right now. Its not the sort of thing that gets handed in as lost property - it just looks like rubbish. Its astonishingly unlikely that anyone would pick it up or realise that it was unused and if someone did I imagine they would use it or give it to a friend - after all there are no identifying marks on it. I suppose I'll have a poke around to see if its in the gutter outside Lewisham station when I get back this evening but I'd be very surprised if it was, because I had zipped up my bag before I got off the bus so its probably in the bus. And even if I did drop it in the street the chances are it would be washed down the drain by the rain.
Not sure what to do now.
Bugger.
